Can knot non-equivalence be a proof-of-work for a cryptocurrency?

Regarding a question about proofs-of-work and following up on this answer and the comments therein, I believe we can, at least in theory, come close to having the hashing resources used in cryptocurrencies … If $G_1$ and $G_2$ can be easily converted to one another, however, then the space may be smaller, and it may become harder to hash on to a long string of $0$'s. …

Mixed structures on Hom spaces induced by mixed sheaves

My question: If $M,N$ are pure pointwise pure (see Geordie Williamson's comment below), then is the induced structure on $Hom(rat(M), rat(N))$ pure? … If the answer is no, under what additional conditions (other than requiring $X$ to be smooth and complete plus $M,N$ being the `constant' sheaf) can the answer be converted to yes? …

in search of a transformation between determinants

I can show $\det A_n=\det B_n=2^{\binom{n+1}2}$; it is not a problem (see, for instance, my answer here). Question. (1) Is there a transformation converting $A_n$ into $B_n$ (or vice-versa)? … Then, $A_n$ and $B_n$ share the same Smith normal form (showing the diagonal vector) given by $$[2^{\max(4k-2n+s(n-k)-s(k),0)}:\, 1\leq k\leq n].$$ This claim is based on data from Noam Elkies' comments
